Hi,

I'm using a CVBS to USB2 converter (Belkin), based probably on WDM. As I don't have IMAQ vision, I can't use the driver provided by NI for the USB camera. Instead of this, I've bought a good product at Alliance Vision, that manages lots of USB and PCI video boards. You can also see at ivision which sell a quite complete llb, including image processing functions. Prices around 500-800€.

You can also try to manage an ActiveX object made for WDM device, but at your own risk!

Good luck.

Bim

Another suggestion. Search the ni website and on google for Robolab.
